Center for International Exchange
The Center for International Exchange promotes globalization on the Komaba campus by offering support to international students and advice to students interested in studying abroad. It also plans activities that encourage exchange among students from various national and cultural backgrounds, and engages in promotional outreach.
The Center is comprised of the International Students' Advisory Room (Building 101), the International Research and Cooperation Office (Building 101), and the Globalization Office (21 KOMCEE West). It also collaborates with the International Education Support Office, Komaba Branch.
Mitaka International Hall of Residence
The Mitaka International Hall of Residence is located in Shinkawa, Mitaka city, for Japanese students in the Komaba Campus and international students from across the university. As can be seen from the name, the ratio of Japanese students to international students is set at 7:3 in order to promote cultural exchange on a daily basis. Currently, the complex consists of six accommodation blocks and a multi-purpose hall. Each of the 605 single rooms are equipped with basic furniture, a mini-kitchen, toilet, shower, and air-conditioning, and provides an affordable and pleasant living space. Moreover, 25% of the residents are female and a female-only floor is a unique feature of the accommodation. There is also regular interaction between the students and the local community.
Komaba Faculty House (International Exchange Hall)
The Komaba Faculty House was established in March 2004 as a social space for researchers at the Komaba campus, and was renovated from the former buildings of the Ichiko Alumni Association Hall near the Sakashita-mon Gate. The former Japanese-style building was replaced by a new building containing seminar rooms and short-term accommodation for foreign researchers, while the Western-style building was renovated into the restaurant 'Lever son Verre Komaba' and the faculty club 'Kanran'. Together with its tranquil setting and surrounding greenery, the Komaba Faculty House functions as an enriching and fulfilling facility.
The Faculty House is managed by the Komaba Faculty House Management Committee, as organised by the Graduate School.
